Research libraries at universities are playing an increasingly relevant role in the implementation of Open Science onto the institutional research outputs. This research support task, that mainly involves dealing with Open Access to publications and Research Data Management, is significantly simplified when libraries are able to rely for the purpose on institutional RIM systems or CRISs. The presentation will showcase the way the research library at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow supports the implementation of Open Science by means of the institutional Pure CRIS. A summary will subsequently be offered for the results of the OCLC/euroCRIS survey on RIM practices worldwide. One of the main findings described in the report for the survey was that libraries worldwide are increasingly involved in the curation and application of the research information stored in CRISs.
